From the New York Times:
5 CommentsSAN FRANCISCO — About 15 people marched alongside the Muslim float in this city’s notoriously fleshy Gay Pride Parade earlier this year, with various men carrying the flags of Egypt, Lebanon, Palestine and Turkey and even Iran’s old imperial banner.
While other floats featured men dancing in leather Speedos or women with scant duct tape over their nipples, many Muslims were disguised behind big sunglasses, fezzes or kaffiyehs wrapped around their heads.
Thanks to Sounder for pointing me towards a photograph published at Kafir Canada. I really don’t have to give any description here; the photographs tell the tale. Now you should be asking the questions.
For the record, Islam does not mean ‘peace’ literally, no matter what any propaganda attempts to imply. Islam means ’submission’, and a Muslim is ‘one who submits to Allah.’ I’m pretty sure that most of us know what Islam means for the future of the Free World by this point, regardless of any definitions. It is not a happy prospect.

There is an interesting Jihad Watch thread this morning centered around McCain: US founded on Christian principles, shouldn’t have Muslim president.
6 CommentsGOP presidential candidate John McCain says America is better off with a Christian President and he doesn’t want a Muslim in the Oval Office.
“I admire the Islam. There’s a lot of good principles in it,” he said. “But I just have to say in all candor that since this nation was founded primarily on Christian principles, personally, I prefer someone who I know who has a solid grounding in my faith.”
Chalk this in the ‘here we go again’ department. From the AP:
6 CommentsThe leader of al-Qaida in Iraq offered money for the murder of a Swedish cartoonist who recently produced images deemed insulting to Islam, according to a statement carried by Islamist Web sites Saturday.
In the half hour audio file entitled “They plotted yet God too was plotting,” Abu Omar al-Baghdadi also promised a new offensive in Iraq during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
Today I present an article from author Melanie Phillips which was recently published by National Review (hat-tip: Gramfan). This is important reading, so I am cross-posting it in full. I encourage you to read it all, especially if you live in Europe or have any compassion for the plight of Europeans at all. In my view the very same things discussed by Phillips apply to Australia and the United States and Canada, too, but just to a lesser extent because of our relative isolation from the immediate threat from Islamism for now. I have taken the liberty of adding emphasis to items that I believe to be of particular importance.
For anyone near NYC today, here are details of a counter protest planned by the UAC:

News from Down Under via the Herald Sun’s Andrew Bolt Blog (hat-tip: Gramfan):
6 CommentsJohn Howard last night condemned two entries in the nation’s top religious art competition, labelling them “gratuitously offensive” to Christians.
A statue of the Virgin Mary shrouded by a Muslim burqa and a holographic image of terrorist Osama bin Laden that morphs into Jesus Christ submitted for the Blake Prize have drawn a furious response from politicians and church leaders.
This email just in from the UAC:
5 CommentsThe United American Committee, America’s largest educational grassroots organization against the threat of radical Islam, is planning a counter protest on Sunday, September 9th of an annual parade in New York City which in years past has attracted thousands of Islamist extremists carrying signs and chanting for the destruction of America. The parade, titled the Annual Muslim Day Parade, is sponsored by several Islamist organizations deemed by many Americans to be radical and a danger to freedom. Past parades have included such extremists as Ashrafuzzaman Khan, accused death squad leader, as well as Siraj Wahhaj, unindicted co-conspirator of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
Well, here we go again. This time it’s cartoonist Berkeley Breathed of Bloom County and Opus fame that is feeling the pinch of Dhimmi American media and the ongoing tug-of-war with Muslim “sensitivities.” It seems that the latest (August 26th) and upcoming (September 2nd) Opus comic strips are just too hot for quite a few (c. 25) American newspapers to publish. What’s the problem? Surely the ‘Religion of Peace and Nature’ isn’t going to stir up a ruckus over a cartoon?
You can view the August 26th Opus comic for yourself here.
